Purpose: Soybean growth is adversely affected by environmental stresses such as drought, extreme temperatures, and nutrient deficiency. The objective of this study was to develop a method for rapid measurement of drought stress in soybean plants using a hyperspectral fluorescence imaging technique. Methods: Hyperspectral fluorescence images were obtained using UV-A light with 365 nm excitation. Two soybean cultivars under drought stress were analyzed. A partial least square regression (PLSR) model was used to predict drought stress in soybeans. Results: Partial least square (PLS) images were obtained for the two soybean cultivars using the results of the developed model during the period of drought stress treatment. Analysis of the PLS images showed that the accuracy of drought stress discrimination in the two cultivars was 0.973 for an 8-day treatment group and 0.969 for a 6-day treatment group. Conclusions: These results validate the use of hyperspectral fluorescence images for assessing drought stress in soybeans.

The objective of this study was to find a rapid determination of the hot air stress in maize (Zea mays L.) leaves using a portable chlorophyll fluorescence imaging instrument. To assess the photosynthetic activity of maize leaves, an imaging analysis of the photochemical responses of maize was performed with chlorophyll fluorescence camera. The observed chlorophyll imaging photos were numerically transformed to the photochemical parameters on the basis of chlorophyll a fluorescence. Chlorophyll a fluorescence imaging (CFI) method showed that a rapid decrease in maximum fluorescence intensity ($F_m$) of leaf occurred under hot air stress. Although no change was observed in the maximum quantum yield ($F_v/F_m$) of the hot air stressed maize leaves, the other photochemical parameters such as maximum fluorescence intensity ($F_m$) and Maximum fluorescence value ($F_p$) were relatively lowered after hot air stress. In hot air stressed maize leaves, an increase was observed in the nonphotoquenching (NPQ) and decrease in the effective quantum yield of photochemical energy conversion in photosystem II (${\Phi}PSII$). Thus, NPQ and ${\Phi}PSII$ were available to be determined non-destructively in maize leaves under hot air stress. Our results clearly indicated that the hot air could be a source of stress in maize leaves. Thus, the CFI analysis along with its related parameters can be used as a rapid indicating technique for the determining hot air stress in plants.

Very decisive progress was made in advancing fundamental POL-IN-SAR theory and algorithm development during the past decade. This was accomplished with the aid of airborne & shuttle platforms supporting single -to-multi-band multi-modal POL-SAR and also some POL-IN-SAR sensor systems, which will be compared and assessed with the aim of establishing the hitherto not completed but required missions such as tomographic and holographic imaging. Because the operation of airborne test-beds is extremely expensive, aircraft platforms are not suited for routine monitoring missions which is better accomplished with the use drones or UAVs. Such unmanned aerial vehicles were developed for defense applications, however lacking the sophistic ation of implementing advanced forefront POL-IN-SAR technology. This shortcoming will be thoroughly scrutinized resulting in the finding that we do now need to develop most rapidly POL-IN-SAR drone-platform technology especially for environmental stress-change monitoring with a great variance of applications beginning with flood, bush/forest-fire to tectonic-stress (earth-quake to volcanic eruptions) for real-short-time hazard mitigation. However, for routine global monitoring purposes of the terrestrial covers neither airborne sensor implementation - aircraft and/or drones - are sufficient; and there -fore multi-modal and multi-band space-borne POL-IN-SAR space-shuttle and satellite sensor technology needs to be further advanced at a much more rapid phase. The existing ENVISAT with the forthcoming ALOSPALSAR, RADARSAT-2, and the TERRASAT will be compared, demonstrating that at this phase of development the fully polarimetric and polarimetric-interferometric modes of operation must be viewed and treated as preliminary algorithm verification support modes and at this phase of development are still not to be viewed as routine modes.

지구온난화는 기후변화를 야기하며 전지구적으로 이상기상 현상을 유발하고 있다. 우리나라에서도 폭염, 가뭄과 같은 이상기상 현상이 증가하고 있는 상황이다. 이상기상 감시를 위하여 지표면온도(Land Surface Temperature, LST), 온도상태지수(Temperature Condition Index, TCI), 식생활력지수(Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, NDVI), 식생상태지수(Vegetation Condition Index, VCI), 식생건강지수(Vegetation Health Index, VHI) 등의 위성자료가 활용되고 있다. TCI와 VCI를 이용하여 계산되는 VHI는 온도, 강수와 같은 기상 요인에 의한 식생 스트레스를 나타내며, 기후변화 상황에서 가뭄 평가에 주로 활용되고 있다. TCI, VCI는 날짜 및 장소에 따른 LST, NDVI의 과거 평년치를 참조해서 산출되기 때문에, 아직 2년여의 자료밖에 없는 천리안위성 2A호(GK2A) AMI (Advanced Meteorological Imager) 자료로부터 TCI, VCI, VHI를 산출하는 것은 현재로서는 쉽지 않은 일이다. 본 연구에서는 대안적인 방법으로 VIIRS (Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite) 센서의 LST, NDVI를 이용하여 GK2A의 VHI 산출 가능성을 모색하였다. GK2A와 VIIRS의 LST, NDVI는 상당히 높은 상관성을 보이기 때문에, GK2A에 존재하지 않는 과거 평년치를 VIIRS 자료로 대체하는 방식을 택하였다. 8일 간격으로 GK2A 격자에 해당하는 LST, NDVI의 최소·최대값 조견표를 구축하여 TCI, VCI, VHI를 산출하였고, 최근 우리나라 이상기상 현상에 대한 해석을 수행하였다. GK2A VHI는 2020년 3월과 6월의 폭염, 4월과 7월의 저온, 8월의 폭우 등으로 인한 식생 스트레스의 변화를 잘 표현하는 것으로 나타났지만, 미국 해양대기청(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, NOAA)의 VHI 산출물은 그렇지 않았다. 본 연구에서 제시한 GK2A VHI는 향후 LST, NDVI의 과거 평년치에 대한 통계적으로 엄밀한 보완을 거친다면 폭염, 가뭄으로 인한 식생 스트레스 감시에 활용될 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.
